This BEAUTIFUL method of alternative-medicine is one of the most popular methods around today! The natural healing crystals are so popular because of the spiritual energy hiden inside and the healing benefits they hold. Today we are going to go over all the powers within the Crystals and how they can benefit us and our anxiety.
What is a Crystal?
A Crystal is a solid material whose constituent’s (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure then forms into a crystal extending in all directions.
The term Crystal is an ancient Greek word meaning both “ice” and “rock crystal”
Crystals form (crystallization) when liquid rock known as “Magma” cools and hardens. They can also form when water evaporates from a natural mixture and in rarer occasions some crystals can even form from gas.
Each crystal starts off small and increases in size the more atoms that is added. Which is why the sizes always seem to Vary crystal to crystal.
The Way Energy Effects Us
As humans we are made up of cells which are made of atoms that are made from particles so to sum it all up we are just a big ball of vibrating energy. Not only does that scientific rule go for humans but that is pretty much factual for everything we contact throughout our day. Everything is simply ENERGY.
Which is why it is so hard to keep our energy stable. With energy being everywhere that is all we connect ourselves with DAILY. Some of that energy being positive and some of that energy being negative.
Just like everything in the Universe we are all have our very own unique vibration frequency to our energy. Some people have high vibrations meaning they typically display emotions such as (happiness, love, forgiveness and kindness) others that have a lower vibration display’s emotions such as (Fear , Anger, Stress and Anxiety.) Our energy tends to be very unstable and is easily influenced by what’s around us and all the other energies that we walk into every day.
For example if we are hanging out with a group of friends and one friend shows up a tad bit late, she may be frazzled and disoriented because she has rushed out the house in 5 minutes and her hair didn’t go as planned. 9 times out of 10 that is going to make our anxiety start to slowly level up. Not because we are frazzled as well, but the energy from our friend just traveled so effortlessly over to us. That there is just to show you how strong other energy vibrations can effect yours.
It is known that prolonged imbalances within your energy may lead to mental health challenges like Anxiety and Stress. So most likely if you find yourself trying to calm down your anxiety multiple times a day it could be more than possible you are dealing with some imbalanced energy.
How Crystals Can Help Balance Our Energy
Now the GREAT thing about Crystal’s is they hold energy as well, but unlike us the energy vibrations stored inside of the crystals is always stable and never changes. A more stable energy is POWER and a more powerful energy vibration takes control and altars the weaker energy that surrounds it AKA us sometimes.
Which makes Crystals amazing for a lot of different purpose’s with Anxiety being one!
The Origins of natural healing crystals is tied to Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, India, Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome where Crystals were used for their metaphysics properties. They were used for health healing and protection. It was believed that the Crystals allowed positive energy to flow through ones body, mind and spirit and rid the body off all negative toxins spiritually, mentally and physically.
It is believed that if you lay a crystal of your choice on a part of your body that is in need of the healing the crystal will activate its healing properties to those areas re balancing and recharging the energy there. After the crystals vibration’s interact with the body’s natural energy the body is left to feel relaxed, focused and clear of any confusion or chaos in the mind. Which is exactly what an anxiety prone mind needs!
There is also talk about some folks using crystals to not only heal the mind but heal the body of illness and diseases as well. Now again there is no scientific proof that crystals can cure you from any illness, but there are studies showing the effects that crystal’s powers have on body aches lessening the pain and sometimes even taking it away all together!
